In spite of another spectacular season from Steve Nash, the Suns will have a very difficult time pursuing for their final title. The return of Amare Stoudemire from knee surgery was aborted after three games and Kurt Thomas isn't expected back from a fractured foot until May.

Maybe that's good for the Suns because they lost their rhythm upon the return of Stoudemire. Now they definitely know who they are-a full-speed team, flying up and down the floor. Yes, the key for them to survive in the postseason is to take advantage of their speed and scoring.

The suns are the highest scoring team in the league, averaging 108 points a game, and they shoot their best three than anybody, their shooting was just second to Miami.

I think if they can handle the ball, shoot the best three and get on the fast break, they may have a better chance of survival.
